Meet Wheezy! She's a devoted, affectionate four-year-old mixed-breed sweetheart with a heart as big as her personality. Her snowy white coat, golden patches, and striking icy blue eyes make her a beauty, and her loyalty, cuddliness, and playfulness are unmatched. Wheezy loves nothing more than to be close to her people, whether it's snuggling on the couch or enjoying her favorite activity: gentle, enthusiastic roughhousing! When she's happy, she lets out little wheezes and oinks, like a happy piglet, guaranteed to make you smile.
Ideal Home
Wheezy would thrive as the only pet in the home, as she is reactive towards other animals and isn't comfortable sharing her space. She would do best with an experienced adopter in a quiet, pet-free home. She is not currently compatible with homes with young children.
Ongoing Health
Wheezy receives Venlafaxine to help manage stress and reactivity, which has been very beneficial. She also follows a special diet to manage food sensitivities. Vet visits require some preparation and pre-visit medication, but with that support, she does well.
Training & Support
Wheezy is fully house-trained, knows several commands (sit, shake, place, free, and wait), and learns new skills quickly. She is responsive when asked to calm down and brings joyful enthusiasm to playtime while remaining gentle. She has made progress on leash, now able to pass dogs with only a brief fluff and grumble before moving on. While she may bark or seem unsure with new people, offering a bit of wet food helps her warm up in about 10-15 minutes. Once comfortable, she is a sweet and easy companion who will follow you around and happily seek affection.
